If I were to boil my DW now (after being in the tank about a year) i'm sure it would still turn blood red. IME boiling is a great help but after a while it creates almost a false positive. I'll usually boil the DW for about 20min at a time, change the water, and repeat for about 5-6 hours then i'll just let the wood soak for a few days, changing the water in the morning and in evening with boiling water. After a few days of soaking i haven't ever had any problems.
FYI i'm using Mopani and Malaysian DW.
Never done the dishwasher trick...something to try next time around.
